In his closing arguments Thursday, Drury said that Mollet’s lies
slowed investigators’ efforts to learn who Blake was and where he’d
gone after dropping her off at a house on Sidney Road near Port
Orchard.

“She concealed him with the intent to delay the apprehension or
even to keep him from being prosecuted,” Drury says.

When first contacted by investigators, Mollet said she didn’t
know Blake and claimed she had spent the night helping someone in
Belfair move. But after authorities arrested her the next day, she
admitted that she’d been with Blake when he shot and killed the
trooper.

Morrison argued that Mollet was scared, and that failure to
report a crime is not against the law. He pointed out that she
never mislead investigators or attempted to provide
misinformation.

Morrison also argued that police never told Mollet that they
would protect her from Blake if telling the truth. Drury pointed
out that she was surrounded by police when she lied.

Drury reminded jurors that Mollet testified that “I kept yelling
at him and telling him he was stupid” after Blake shot Radulescu.
The prosecutor said that didn’t sound like someone who was fearing
for her life.

Morrison contended the pair was not Bonnie and Clyde and that
prosecutors “wanted to make an example out of her.”

Lame lawyering for the defense……you can fool some of the people some of the time but……..maybe she can get an education in the correctional system, it looks like prison will be a “step up” the social ladder for her.
